Unable to connect to linux head with windows worker

How severe does this issue affect your experience of using Ray?

  • High: It blocks me to complete my task.

Hello sorry if this is a dumb question but I have been struggling to get a local cluster set up. I have a linux machine that will be the head and several workers, some linux and some windows.

The linux machines connect perfectly while the the windows machines will not connect. I have tried setting the env variable as stated in the error message below.

Error: “Multi-node Ray clusters are not supported on Windows and OSX. Restart the Ray cluster with the environment variable RAY_ENABLE_WINDOWS_OR_OSX_CLUSTER=1 to proceed anyway.”

I went and set the ENV variable on the Head machine but am still unable to connect

Head ENV: XDG_SESSION_ID=5
RAY_ENABLE_WINDOWS_OR_OSX_CLUSTER=1
XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1000

Hi what is the error message?
